Radatz Saves Pair Os Games For Red Sox By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer The gag around the American League is that Dick Radatz may win the MVP award but that his arm will be so sdre by then that he won’t be able to comb his hair for the occasion. , Actually, the Boston strongboy’s chances of winning the most valr uable player award are looking less and less like a gag. And even though he has appeared in 40 per cent of the Red Sox’ games so far, including six of their last eight games, he doesn’t seem to be worried about arm trouble. “I don’t see any cause for concern," he.says. ‘‘My pitching motion is smooth. I’m not one of those herky-jerky guys.” The six-foot-six 240-pounder was planty smooth Tuesday night as he worked both ends of a twinight doubleheader against the Cleveland Indians and preserved 4-1 and 3-2 victories that boosted the Red Sox within games of first place. Strikes Out Seven The overpowering Radatz faced a total of 10 menand struck out seven of them. He saved Bill Monbouquette’s 11th victory in the opener although tagged for a ninth-inning homer by Max Alvis and then came back to nail down Earl Wilson's seventh triumph. Radatz has appeared in 28 games so far and has a shot at Mike Fornieles’ AL record of 70 set in 1960, particularly in view of manager Johnny Pesky's announced intention of using him ‘‘any time I think it’s vital.” Things have reached such a pass now that Fenway Park fans begin chanting “We want Radatz” as early as the fifth inning. The Red Sox clinched Tuesday night’s opener with three runs in the eighth inning and rode to victory in the nightcap when Radatz’ roommate, Dick Stuart, drove in two runs on a pair of singles and Lou Clinton belted his ninth homer. The Chicago White Sox climbed within nine percentage points of the first-place New York Yankees by beating them for the fourth straight time this season, 2-1, and in other AL games Minnesota defeated Detroit, 1-0, Kansas City walloped Washington, 8-4, and Baltimore, blasted Los 1041. V ’ • r T V’ Over in the National League, the St. Louis Cardinals took over first place with a 6-5 victory over the San Francisco Giants, the Los Angeles Dodger* defeated the Cincinnati Reds, 4-I,' the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Pittsburgh Pirates, 5-4, in 10 innings, Milwaukee blanked Houston, 4-0, and the Chicago Cubs topped the New York Mets, 4-1. Floyd Robinson’s eighth-inning homer off loser Ralph Terry broke up a 1-1 tie between the White Sox and Yankees as Juan Pizarro struck out 11 batters and gave up five hits in gaining his ninth victory. Terry was charged with his eighth defeat in 15 decisions although he held the White Sox hitless until the sixth inning and yielded only three hits all told. The Twins collected only two hits off Jim Bunning but one of them was Harmon Killebrtw’s 15th homer in the third inning and that proved to be the ball game. Lee Stange shut out the Tigers on live hits for his second victory without a loss. Gino Cimoli’s three-run double highlighted a sik-run fourth inning rally that carried the A’s to their victory over the Senators. Diego Segui picked up his third victory with help front Bill Fischer while Dave Stenhouse suffered his eighth defeat. Chuck Cottier and Ed Brinkman homered for the Senators. Veteran Robin Roberts got his 250th major league victory with a four-hitter against the Angels hs Jim Gentile drove in six runs for the Orioles with a pair of doubles and a homer. The victory was Roberts’ sixth of the season compared with seven losses. Dean Chance was the loser.

Parnelli Jones Opposes Ford Entry In Race DETROIT (UPi)—Racing driver Parnelli Jones said Tuesday that Ford Motor Co.’s entry into racing at Indianapolis could be the death knell of the sport in America. “Who has the money to compete with Ford?” the crewcut speedster asked. Jones took exception to reports that the entry and second and seventh place finishes of the rear-engined cars heralded a new era at the Indianapolis 500. Jones won the Indy classic this year in record time. “If they were to come back to Indy with the same cars they ran this year we’d wipe them off the track,” he said. "People don’t understand what we did to let them come to race. Their cars are not up to our standards. They have parts made from aluminum and we have to have the same parts made from steel. “We want them back but next year we want them up to our standards,” he said. Ford announced Tuesday it has under development a double overhead camshaft engine that will run at Indy next year. The new engine. Ford said, will produce substantially more horsepower than the regular push-rod version used in this year’s race. "Meyer-Drake certainly needs to have some financial support behind it, if it intends to compete with Ford,” Jones said. The Meyer-Drake engineering firm builds the famed Offenhauser engine that has dominated Indianapolis through the modern era. “There are ways they could njake the Offy lighter but that takes money,” he said. And money is just what Ford poured into its effort, Jones added. “Why they brought a man from Italy just to take eare of carburetion. They spent a million bucks, and if you give me a million bucks I guarantee I’ll win at Indy,’ r he said.

Indians Slay Atop Heap In Little League The Indians stayed undefeated in the Decatur Little League Tuesday evening with a 9-3 win over the Red Sox, and the Senators chalked up their third win of the year, besting the Yankees, 6-4 in the nightcap of a doubleheader. Mike Curtin doubled and scored in the first inning giving his team a lead which they never lost in winning their sixth of the season without a defeat. Alan Bedwell’s first of three hits, a double, and singles by Dan Pierce and Max Bedwell, plus two bases on balls, booster the Indians into a 4-0 lead in the third inning. Ken'Gause, who was practically the entire Red Sox offense, as he clouted a pair of home runs to drive in all their runs, cracked his first four-baser in the third to cut the lead to 4-1. Jones Homers A fielder’s choice, an error, singles by Curtin and Mike Schnepf, a double by Bedwell, and Mark Jones’ first home run of the season in the fourth fyame pushed across another three runs, giving the Indians a 7-1 margin and they coasted home for the win, adding their final two runs in the sixth. Gause blasted bis second home run of the evening with Bruce Beery aboard in the fifth inning to record the final tallies for the Sox. The two homers were the second and third of the season for Gause and place him in a tie with Tom Schultz and'Schnepf for the league lead in that\depa>tment. Curtin hurleJStte distance for the winners, allowing only five hits, while walking three and striking out three. Senators Rally Three sixth inning tallies brought the Senators from behind in the nightcap, as they posted their third win against five losses. Rick Eloph’s double in the third inning gave his team a one-run lead, but the Yanks came back with three tallies in their half of the third on walks to Jeff Snyder and Mike Augsburger, an error, a double by Bruce Bedwell and a single by Jim Call. Eloph’s second double and a single by Dan Pettibone tied the score in the fifth, but the Yanks regained the lead with a run in the last of the fifth on two errors and Jery Rich’s single. Three Yank errors and a single by Mike Pettibone acounted for the three winning tallies in the sixth inning for the Senators. Indians AB R H E Curtin, p 3 3 2 0 Schnepf, c 3 0 10 Baker, 2b 0 0 0 0 A.

Pony League Thursday — Cardinals at Adams Central, 8 p.m.; Monmouth at Berne, 8 p.m. , Friday — Cubs at Geneva, 6 p.m. Jack Nicklaus Vows To Win Al Cleveland CLEVELAND (UPI) — Jack Nicklaus, still smarting over his sorry showing in the U.S. Open, is determined to atone for it—and regain the top spot on golfs money winning list — when he tees off Thursday in the 6110,000 Cleveland Open. Nicklaus, who failed to make the cut at Brookline, Mass., last week, has vowed to friends he will make up for that disappointment, and he can get back on top of the money winning list by capturing the $22,000 first prize in this event. Right now he trails Arnold Palmer and Julius Boros, the new U.S. Open king, who between them have picked up most of the loot in the richest five weeks of tournament play in golfing history. In the five tournaments starting at Indianapolis and winding up here, a total of $402,000 —not counting a lot of rich side benefits — have triton at stake. And of the total of SBI,OOO allotted for first place money in the five events. Palmer and Boros between them have picked up $60,470 during this "gold dust stretch.” r— Palmer Skips Two Palmer made $32,000 although he competed in only two of the four tourneys preceding this one, wiyle Boros, who played in all four, won $28,740. Palmer took the $25,000 jackpot in the SIOO,000 Thunderbird and picked up $7,000 in the U.S. Open, which he lost in a playoff with Boros and young Jacky Cupit. Boros won $3,400 in the $50,000 Indianapolis Open, the $9,000 first place money in the $50,000 Buick Open, only $345 in the Thunder--bird but then came back to win the $16,000 top gold in the OpenThose earnings put Palmer at the top of the money winning list with $63,545, followed by Boros with $59,680 and Nicklaus with $58,690. Could Regain Lead Should the Ohio strong boy win the marbles in his home state, he would vault back into first place, where he would like to be when he leaves these shores to take a shot at the British Open championship in July. The field will be cut to the low 60, and ties for the final two rounds of play after Friday’s second round. In the event of a tie after the final round on Sunday, there will be a sudden death playoff.

Cardinals Edge : Giants, Regain National Lead By FRED DOWN i UPI Sports Writer Forget the National League's pennant race for a moment and take a gander at its race for the batting championship. It’s a tournament of champions involving 1960 champ Dick Groat of the St. Louis Cardinals, 1961 titlist Roberto Clemente of the Pittsburgh Pirates and 1962 king Tommy Davis of the Los Angeles Dodgers. > ■ And there’s even an uninvited fourth hopeful — the Cardinals' Bill White, who has challenged in the past but never quite made it. The race today shows Davis arid Clemente tied for the lead at .335 each and Groat and White tied for second at .333 each. Davis moved up three points Tuesday night when he contribute? 1 , two singles to an 11-hit attack that helped Sandy Kou- ; fax and the .Dodgers down the Cincinnati Reds, 4-1. White had three hits and Groat a key double, meanwhile, as the Cardinals tapped the San Francisco Giants, 6-5, and moved back into first place. The Cardinals hold a halfgame lead over both their chief > rivals, with the Dodgers second by six percentage points and the ; Giants third by eight. Phils Whip Pirates The Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Pirates, 5-4, in 10 innings despite two hits by Clemente; the Milwaukee Braves beat the Houston Colts, 4-0, and the Chicago Cubs topped the New York Mets, 4-1, in other NL ac- , tion. In the American League, the . Chicago White Sox nipped the New York Yankees, 2-1, the Boston Red Sox defeated the Cleveland Indians, 4-1 and 3-2, the Kansas City Athletics whipped the Washington Senators, 8-4, The Minnesota Twins shaded the Detroit Tigers, 1-0, <nd the Baltimore Orioles walloped the Los Angeles Angels, 10-0. The second of Davis’ two hits capped a two-run, tie-breaking eighth-inning Dodger rally spearheaded by Maury Wills’ safe bunt and Jim Gilliam’s double. Koufax pitched a six-hitter and struck •ut nine batters for his fifth Straight win and 12th of the season while Cincinnati’s Jim Q’Toole suffered his fourth loss ' against 13 triumphs. He had won •even'in a row. Win On Error The Cardinals, given an early lead with the help by slugging by Groat and Whiter won out in the ninth when Orlando Cepeda threw wildly to third base on a bunt, permitting Tim McCarver to score. Willie McCovey's two-run homer and a two-run triple by Felipe Alou produced four, runs for the Giants arid a 5-5 tie in the eighth. Ron Taylor was the winner and Bob Bolin the loser. The Phillies pulled out their 10inning win over the Pirates when Don Demeter led off the frame with a homer, his 13th of the year. Johnny Klippstein, who 1 pitched the last two innings, wdn his third game for the Phillies while Harvey Haddix suffered the loss. Tony Cloninger pitched a fourhitter as the Braves dealt the Colts their 10th consecutive loss. Lee Maye had a homer and a double to pace the Braves’ eighthit attack. The Colts have scored only one run in their last 66 innings and have been scoreless in the last 25. Ron Santo had three hits, including a two-run seventh-inning single, as the Cubs beat the Mets behind Larry Jackson’s four hitter. Duke Snider homered for the Mets’ only~run off Jackson, who scored his ninth win against six losses. BOWLING Duke & Duchess Final Standings Team .W L Pts.
